How to Recall a Message Using Outlook Express
If you accidentally click the "Send" button in Outlook Express before you're ready to send the email, you might be able to recall it if you and the recipient both use a Microsoft Exchange account. However, many home and personal accounts do not use Microsoft Exchange, in which case there is no way to recall a message.
Recall the Message
-
Log in to your Microsoft Exchange account using the username and password of the account you used to send the message. Click on the "Sent Items" folder, find the email you want to recall, and then double-click it to open it. In the "Message" tab, go to the "Actions" group, click the "Other Actions" drop-down menu, and then choose "Recall This Message."
